Photon reception by a uniformly accelerated observer
ID: photon-reception-by-a-uniformly-accelerated-observer
For the standard right-wedge hyperbola and a stationary source at emitting rightmoving photons, the retarded null coordinate is . Equating it to the emission value gives the displayed reception relation. Differentiating yields the Doppler frequency ratio . The limiting emission time is a supremum: emission exactly at that time is never received at finite proper time. These expressions use and acceleration continued indefinitely.
